847 - Overhaul

The overhaul of SR Maunsell S15 class 4-6-0 847 was completed in December 2013. The engine returned to public service on 14 December 2013, having previously made a number of test runs, and hauled a special train reserved for staff.

The locomotive is owned by the Maunsell Locomotive Society and prior to overhaul was last operational on 6 October 1997.

This collection shows some scenes from the overhaul. Pictures of the locomotive in service are in a separate gallery.
